Thank you Detail2Recruitment for 5 star service and professionlism throughout the entire recruiting process. I was placed in a fantastic job within a month of my first communication with company and once I started the job I continued to receive regular sms's and calls to 'check-in' how I was doing, which again highlights their professionalism as well as empathy and care for their clients.

She went above and beyond to ensure I was fully prepared for interviews and regularly followed up to check on my progress. Thanks to her personalized approach, I was able to land a fantastic opportunity. I’m incredibly grateful for her support.

Working with and speaking to Natasha Duffy at Detail2Recruiment has been an absolute pleasure. Over an above the professionalism shown by Natasha, she has in my opinion gone above and beyond what may have been required.
Her communication in regards to the role was excellent, her insights and advice into some coaching for the interviews was something new for me, which I believe was part of what secured me my new role. Her follow up process, communication and feedback was also a breathe of fresh air.
I cannot praise both Natasha and Detail2Recruitment enough other Recruitment Agencies should take a leaf out of Detail2Recruiment and Natasha's processes and approach.
This is the first time I've ever had a good experience like this with and agency and not left feeling let down or just a commodity for sale.
Once again thank you so much and wish everyone the best.

Hello, Simon
I've thoroughly enjoyed the recruitment process pertaining to the Alpine Fire Engineering Group, just as well as l have come to appreciate your high top-notch professionalism. I'm happy to be considering accepting a couple of like offers on my table at the moment, regardless of the fact that Alpine seem to have lost-out on a valuable asset. I have accepted a much better offer elsewhere, and this has absolutely nothing to do with you or with your HR firm. You gave the best of service and excellence, whilst at it & carried me along professionally.
